List mailFolders

Namespace: microsoft.graph

Important

APIs under the /beta version in Microsoft Graph are subject to change. Use of these APIs in production applications is not supported. To determine whether an API is available in v1.0, use the Version selector.

Get the mail folder collection directly under the root folder of the signed-in user. The returned collection includes any mail search folders directly under the root.

By default, this operation does not return hidden folders. Use a query parameter includeHiddenFolders to include them in the response. This operation does not return all mail folders in a mailbox, only the child folders of the root folder. To return all mail folders in a mailbox, each child folder must be traversed separately.

This API is available in the following national cloud deployments.

Global service US Government L4 US Government L5 (DOD) China operated by 21Vianet

Tip

If a collection exceeds the default page size (10 items), the @odata.nextLink property is returned in the response to indicate more items are available and provide the request URL for the next page of items.

You can control the page size through optional query string parameters

Example 2: Include hidden folders in the signed-in user's mailbox

This example uses the includeHiddenFolders query parameter to get a list of mail folders including hidden mail folders. The response includes the "Clutter" folder that has the isHidden set to true.

Request

GET https://graph.microsoft.com/beta/me/mailFolders/?includeHiddenFolders=true

Response

The following example shows the response.

Note: The response object shown here is shortened for readability, and doesn't include all the default folders in a user mailbox.
